Jiang Mu didn't expect Zhu Lian's reaction to be so big. It seemed that her status as a prince and the inherent idea that men were superior to women caused her to misunderstand.
"My wife is too worried. She is as beautiful as a fairy. How can I dislike her..."
Jiang Mu sighed. He was not good at coaxing girls, so he had to tell them the reason why they slept separately and what happened to Chunyin Pavilion last night.
Of course, the part about Yu Xuanji has been hidden.
After Zhu Lian heard this, he stopped crying, but he still complained and wiped his tears with a handkerchief and said, "Even so, the husband should not salute his concubine. Isn't it against the rules?"
She is about to cry, which makes people pity her.
"What's wrong with the rules? There are no outsiders here. I feel sorry for my wife!"
Jiang Mu was itching to see it, and reached out to take her handkerchief and wipe it for her, "Although you and I have been married not long ago, how can I not know my wife's feelings for me? Yesterday, I got the fairy girl's promise to take my wife to Bi. I will practice in Unzen Mountain for a long time in the future, and I hope that I can stay with my wife forever..."
The girl was so simple in mind that she could not bear such a considerate gesture. Coupled with the man's sweet words, the anger in her heart instantly disappeared, and her worries turned into joy. Happy..."
Wiping away the tears, she gently raised her jade hand to caress Jiang Mu's face, her beautiful eyes flashed: "It's true that Miss Shishi, my husband is so handsome, how can she bear not to see him..."
The small, catkin-like hands were smooth and delicate. Jiang Mu couldn't help but feel lustful in his heart. He smiled and held her hand: "It's true that the lady has discernment!" The other hand was about to reach into the soft spot.
"Wait a minute, I have something else to say..."
Zhu Lianxiu looked panicked and wanted to stand up, but was pulled into his arms and unable to move.
Helpless, I had no choice but to look at the perpetrator and said, "I came to my husband last night to discuss with him what gifts to prepare for the 100th birthday of the Director of the Demon Department, Zhou Tong."
Jiang Mu touched the "soft" part of his hand and paused, his face became a little weird, "Madam, you are saying that the director of the Demon Suppression Department is named Zhou Tong?"
"Well, I also heard from my younger sister Fengying that the names of those masters in the Song Dynasty who will be righteous and become immortals are taboo. I have only met Director Zhou Tong, Imperial Master Guo Jing, and Li Qingzhao, the lay scholar of Yi'an..."
Zhu Lian warned: "If you meet your husband outside, be sure not to call him by his first name!"
Director Zhou of the Demon Suppression Department also had memories, but his specific name was unknown.
Zhou Tong, the hero Zhou Tong, known as the "Iron Arm", was familiar with military books and practiced martial arts hard. Feeling corrupted by the Song Dynasty, he retired to the mountains and forests and created his own martial arts such as Guanzhong Red Boxing and Five Steps and Thirteen Spears. Lu Junyi, Lin Chong, Yue Fei and others all worshiped him as their teacher.
Master Li can be a fox demon in this world, so why shouldn't Zhou Tong be the director of the Demon Suppression Department? And this layman Li Qingzhao of Yi'an, after hearing this, he will no longer be shocked...
It will be his 100th birthday in ten days. Although there is no invitation, Jiang Mu, as the prince, must not be absent. The choice of gifts is extremely important. It should neither be too expensive nor too shabby. He thought about it, but he really couldn't think of a suitable one. As for what to give, he asked Xiang Zhu Lian, "Madam, do you have any ideas?"
Zhu Lian smiled slightly, twisted his body, and found a more comfortable position, "My father has prepared the gift for Director Zhou. It is a piece of fine hundred-year-old jade. It will be sent to you soon." , what do you think, Mr. Lang?"
"Hahaha, what else can I think of it? Of course I am happy. I am so lucky to be able to marry my wife!" Jiang Mu laughed loudly and covered the area with his hands...
The hundred-year-old jade sounds like it is not ordinary. It seems that Zhu Bocai had no intention of marrying Zhu Fengying to Zhao Kai, but thinking about it, he has already worshiped He Xiangu as his disciple, so why does he need to get married?
After a heavy rain, the weather did not get cooler and was still extremely hot. Zhu Lian arranged for all the uprooted loquat trees to be transplanted to various places in the mansion.
Two days later, the school martial arts field was finally completed.
There were twelve guards in the mansion. Jiang Mu called them all to the school grounds. Seeing that most of them looked sleepy and unable to stand, he couldn't help but sigh.
The guards of the Prince's Palace are all elites selected from the Forbidden Army. If this is the case, imagine what the 800,000 Imperial Guards in Tokyo look like, a rabble? Or a bunch of embroidered pillows?
Not to mention fighting against the Jin soldiers and cavalry and the Xixia army, whether they can defeat Song Jiang, Fang La and other rebel bandits is probably a problem!
"I accidentally fell into the water a few days ago. You should know this!" Jiang Mu cleared his throat and shouted, frightening everyone to immediately cheer up.
"Thanks to God's blessing, I was able to escape the disaster. Now that I have regained my life, I have spontaneously realized something in my heart. I have decided to form a new guard from among you. Anyone who is selected will be rewarded with three pieces of silk. Those who are chosen will be demoted to servants in the palace!"
Three bolts of silk are not low in value. They are enough to go to Chunyin Pavilion to marry a girl for a few nights. If Zhu Lian hadn't brought a lot of dowry, Prince Ding's palace would not have been able to come up with these things.
As soon as these words came out, the twelve people all looked at each other in confusion. Seeing this, Jiang Mu became even more angry, "Get rich!"
Hearing this, Changfu immediately stepped forward, his old eyes widened, and the aura of an innate master suddenly appeared: "Everyone, run ten times on the school field. Anyone who can't persist will be eliminated!"
As the top master and steward of Prince Ding's Mansion, Chang Fu's "notoriety" is obviously more "notorious" than that of his master, Jiang Mu.
If a servant breaks a plate in the house and is discovered by the prince, the most he can do is kneel down and admit his mistake. The prince is kind-hearted and will forgive him. But if he is caught by the rich man, he will be fined at the least and given a meal to protect him. I couldn't get out of bed for ten days.
So even if they were reluctant, they all started running around the school field.
One trip is almost three hundred meters, ten times is three kilometers. According to their speed, which is about the same as walking, they can probably run for half an hour.
Seeing this, Jiang Mu stretched his legs and joined the running circle.
"Your Majesty, you have just recovered from a serious illness. This..."
"It doesn't matter!"
"Everyone, listen up, if you can run ten times before me, you will receive a reward of ten taels!"
Although the Forbidden Army of the Song Dynasty also had self-cultivation skills, how could they compare with those given by He Xiangu?
The twelve people all thought that their prince had just changed his personality, and that everything else was as before. After hearing this, one of them excitedly said loudly: "Liu Qi, the Centurion of the Tiger Wing Army in front of the former palace, if His Highness's words are true, I will definitely get that ten gold reward!"
With such a huge reward, why be afraid of the harsh sunshine!
"The same is true for the last general Wu Qing. Your Highness, please don't break your promise..."
Jiang Mu glanced at the person they were speaking to, "My king's words are hard to follow, so you can come and take them!"
Prince Ding made a bet with the guards in the mansion, and soon word spread in the mansion. Everyone was curious and came to watch. In such a vicious sun, even though Zhu Lian was told by Jiang Mu that he had acquired the self-cultivation skills taught by He Xiangu, he still couldn't help but worry in his heart.
Zhang Zhenyun was beside Zhu Lian, observing his words and comforting her: "Your Highness does not seem to be an arrogant person. Since you are boasting so boldly, you should be aware of it. Princess, there is no need to worry."
"Having said that, Dalang is recovering after all. I'm afraid that he may be in trouble, but he doesn't want to lose face and wants to force himself. By the way, go to the ice cellar to get some crushed ice..."
Zhu Lian was worried here, but said that Jiang Mu was feeling the scorching sun, but his speed was not slow at all. Ever since the little man made of stars entered his body, his physical fitness was not what it used to be. He carried it on his back last night. Zhuyu Xuanji ran for nearly five kilometers, panting slightly, and now he was far away from the others.
This scene shocked the servants who were watching, but some did not believe it. They felt that the guard was deliberately letting the prince...
Liu Qi was not just a talker. Like Jiang Mu, he kept the others far away, but that was all, and he could not surpass Jiang Mu until the end.
After ten laps, no one gave up, ran or walked, and everyone persisted. They also saw that His Highness was no longer the His Highness before, and they were all afraid of being demoted to a servant in the mansion.
"So, do you still think my king's reward is good?"
In fact, running three kilometers is nothing. The main reason is that the sun is so bright, they are still wearing armor, and luckily they all practice the physical training skills of the Forbidden Army, otherwise they will suffer from heatstroke.
"The general is blind and does not know His Highness's abilities. Please make atonement for Your Highness..."
Seeing that Jiang Mu was only panting slightly and still had the strength to stand, Liu Qi couldn't help but feel horrified and hurriedly worshiped him.
Changfu sent away the servants of the mansion who were watching, leaving only old man Zhang here.
And he seemed to know Liu Qi, and stepped forward and said: "Brother Liu, it seems that these years of affluent life have made you relax a lot, and you are still stuck in the Mingtai realm. I wonder what your father will do when he finds out. Thoughts..."
Liu Qi looked ashamed and lowered his head.
I thought that after he became a general, he accompanied his father to fight against the Khitan and Liao Kingdoms when he was young. He also had ambitions to conquer the world. He thought that as the eldest son of the emperor and the first to be crowned king, he must be the crown prince of the Song Dynasty, so he chose to follow Ding. In the future, I will be able to express my ambitions!
Unexpectedly, after coming to Prince Ding's Mansion, he discovered that although Prince Ding was kind-hearted and easy to get along with, his character was too weak and hesitant when encountering problems. He had no heroic spirit at all. At this time, the third king, Zhao Kai, was well-known for being a virtuous man and was sealed. King Yun, the official family had hidden intentions of making him the crown prince. He suddenly felt that there was no hope for the king to establish a heir apparent, but he did not want to be one of those half-hearted people who turned to seek refuge with him, so he gave up on himself and went about his work with others, and went there during his free time. In brothels and other places with fireworks, how can one remember to cultivate themselves?
"Get up. You are still young and have only been working in my house for two years. It is not too late to regain your enterprising spirit in the future. Follow me and work well. I will not treat you badly."
Looking at this dark-skinned young man of similar age to himself, Jiang Mu's expression suddenly froze...
